Dang! Can I drop by and "dig" through your basement? Great stuff and that's a pretty serious geode! Is there a story behind that one?

Stop by any time. Also have a 4 car garage full of specimens and a 12 by 36 building so full it just has a 2 foot path thru it. This is part of a rock shop contents that went out of business in the early 80's. Part owned by Bob Riddle. Dug out a bunch more this morning from the building. Found a bucket of Ark. turquoise. Beryl as big as a soccer ball with green beryl going thru it. No telling what all is in those buckets ( about 30 - 40 5 gal. buckets).

That's my kind of rock hunting! Nice material & you can really conserve on the fuel costs. Garry
